Hate is a funny thing
Disclaimer: Always a bookworm does not own Yu-gi-oh.
This is my first fic, so be nice! Non yaoi. 'Hate is a funny thing' is dedicated to my best friend otter pratonus.
I don't hate him. That's the strange thing. I should. I should resent him for what he did to me. He took over my body, locked me away, treated me terribly. But I still miss him.
Yugi misses Atem, but that's understandable. Atem was kind. Atem didn't treat Yugi like dirt. But Bakura did. All the time he was here I wished he was gone, but now he is I wish he was back. I realize now that he was like a brother to me. He protected me. And when he was here I wasn't alone. I knew that someone needed me, even liked me, even if he was a mad 5,000 year old spirit who was trying to take over the world.
He despised me for my weakness, but he was always there. He'd never admit it, but he was my friend. My only real friend. Yugi and his gang are nice, sure, but they're not Bakura.
I'm all alone again, trying to live a normal life. And I will. I'll work hard, finish school, get a job, and maybe get married eventually. Have kids. Grow old. But I'll never forget him. I'll still miss him in eighty years time.
I should hate him. But I don't. And no-one is going to understand that.
